Description

The 3D instantaneous reflectivity at output times is supposed to include water coated ice, however, a bug in the reset flag results in the enhanced reflectivity due to water coated ice to be computed on off times. The fix is a one line change in GFS_tyypdefs.F90 from
Interstitial%radar_reset = mod(Model%kdt-1, nint(Model%nsradar_reset/Model%dtp)) == 0
to
Interstitial%radar_reset = ( Model%kdt == 1 .or. mod(Model%kdt, nint(Model%nsradar_reset/Model%dtp)) == 0 )

To Reproduce:

Seen on hera when refl_10cm is added to diag_table.

Additional context

Output

refl_problem

Testing:

Fix has been tested on hera. It will change results. No RTs were done.
